Modular device rack

Summary

Modular racks are primarily used to construct complex multi-chip systems out of YOLOL chips.

Basic information

• Minimal working configuration of modular device rack includes a single module rack and a socket core module
  • Socket cores are needed to connect the device to a network
  • Fits two chips, creating a compact device with some parallel computing ability
• The rack parts can be plugged into each other from the sides, back, top, or bottom, enabling extension with multiple racks and different device modules

Modules

• There are currently four main modules
  • Rack: Frame for attaching functional modules. Has plug connections for extending configuration to combine multiple racks
  • Socket Core: Basic module with two chip slots and a cable socket for connecting to network
  • Chip Core: Default computing module with three slots for chips
  • Chip Reader: Alternate chip module for one chip in a configuration that allows editing and monitoring

Rack

• Bolts to the frame of the ship or to other rack modules from the top and bottom
• The core of any modular rack combination
  • Device modules plug into the slot in the rack
  • Racks connect to other racks from 5 sides: sides, top, bottom, back

Socket core

• Fits inside the rack
• Two YOLOL chip slots
• One socket for cabling

---

Chip core

• Three YOLOL chip slots

---

Chip reader

• One YOLOL Chip indent with chip facing the user
  • Allows live editing of chips connected to a rack network.
